350Z's 2007 I Fund Thread

MSCI EAFE 0.75% for the day!

Perfect play would be Report is weak, causing the US DOLLAR to fall and hopes for the FED to cut would rally the market. Best of 2 worlds...higher EURO/YEN and higher USMs.

This is what happened today for the most part. I locked my profits and went to the G Fund for Monday based on a possible pull-back and Penny payout.

I know that Australia counts for 5.6%, but I just caught this on the line:

and

http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601101&sid=ask5yIY1hyRk&refer=japan

If I am doing the math correctly assuming the following:
Rudimentally,

Normal 1.00USD = 1.00USD $40 Stock = $40
Overvalued 0.98USD = 1.00USD $40 Stock = $40.80
Undervalued 1.00USD = 1.02USD $40 Stock = $39.20

If inflation causes the worth of the $ to drop - that causes all stock to be overvalued. If the currency rises, then undervalued. So, based on the articles above, I take away that Australia will be looking at a major pullback. Is this even close simplistcally?

Will we get an FV today or will it be even?

No FV and the I fund is even.

 

[ebbnflow]

G 11.90 even
F 11.38 +.02 (+0.18%)
C 16.76 +.04 (+0.24%)
S 20.40 +.07 (+0.34%)
I 24.40 +.20 (+0.83%)

That's all she wrote!

Ok, that's twice this week that we have gotten 1-2 pennies extra in the I fund. What kind of math is Barclay using? Not that I'm complaining...

You had mention that you might stay for Monday. What made you change your mind?

Yep, I too am puzzled. There were times when we know that the I-fund should have gotten more than it should have. Maybe this is how they make up for it in order to reconcile their books and records. They owe it to the I-fund, so they give it back a little at a time.

 

[ebbnflow]

Or, if we're (or they're) a little paranoid, they might be trying to throw us off our tracks. Changing those price patterns, those wily coyotes!

 

[ATCJeff]

Could it be capital gains or dividends?

 

[fabijo]

Could it be capital gains or dividends?

Nah. They keep that stuff to help pay for those "administrative" costs - like business meetings on the beach in the Bahamas or something!

Several reasons....the DJIA did not rally, the Yen held its ground,penny payout,and I think there will be a red Monday. http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bc?s=%5EDJI&t=3m... look at this 3 month chart of the DJIA,looks like it will fall of the map...law of gravity

 

[Howxotk]

Ebb, I'm curious, when your spin chart misses a big gainer day like fri, is there any particular reason that you can point to? How

Howxotk, let me answer that on the ebbchart thread. I don't wan't to hijack the I-fund thread.

 

[clester]

Anyone have an estimate?

 

[jayhawker]

Early estimate: +.600 or +15 cents.

 

[InvertedNyBot]

Early estimate: +.600 or +15 cents.

As of 3pm EST EFA is only up $.11

With a bank holiday in London, it seems that TspLookup might have a bug in this situation. I hope I'm wrong, but maybe a good looking over of the code/output is in order.

cheers,

And the bad news is? :toung:

I'm seriously in the I fund all week, unless something really bad happens in the orient....psst...China. see thread "The I Fund"

I've also moved my military account to "I" just to emphasize my position. It's weird having 2 accounts.
